I've been using the Guitar Center brand (Sound Percussion?) for about 15 years now. I was a Vic Firth diehard for the previous 15, but the pricing kept creeping up, well beyond my affordability range. I found the generic GC sticks to work just as well, and break/splinter with the same frequency (I play lots of rim shots), for almost half the price, and I've not bought any brand name sticks since.
Now, GC has even cheaper, unlabeled/unbranded sticks for sale. I was thinking about stepping down to those, just to see what life's like on the other side. What about you? Are you a brand name adherent? Or are you willing to play whatever's the cheapest new stick around?
